Focke-Wulf 190 A6 Night Fighter 'red 21' of 1./NJGr 10 Le Bourget France 1944

[SR603-Flowbee]

The skin is based on this photo.

 

 

The majority of A-6s were deployed in the West in Defence of the Reich missions against Allied bomber formations, with some finding their way to Nachtjäger (night fighter) units defending against nocturnal RAF bomber attacks. Some A-6 nachtjägers were equipped with FuG 217 Neptun radar (the R11 Rüstsätze, or field conversion) to help pilots locate bombers in the dark. During 1944 the single-engined night fighters were gradually replaced by twin-engine radar equipped aircraft like the Ju.88G and Bf110G.
 

If you are wondering where the Neptun Radar is in my skin, the skin represents the aircraft just prior to conversion.

I modified the A8 template and then when I was finished, found out that ICDP had already posted the official template. I was all set to start again but found that everything matched up perfectly apart from the medical kit hatch. In the photo which I copied it is in a different position from the template so maybe that needs moving in the template? As always thanks to ICDP for the template which I will be sure to use next time.

 

Update - fix for SturmJaeger armor yet again... not everything matched up perfectly afterall.

Good spot on the first aid compartment which IIRC was moved at some point during the A5 production.  I copied the official panel layout from the stock skin and will fix that at some point.

Very interesting skin... Usually, "Nachtjager" would have much, much darker skin.

Well done weathering... ?
